EE 105: Microelectronic Devices and Circuits

Electrical Engineering 105: Microelectronic Devices and Circuits (Spring 2013, UC Berkeley). Instructor: Professor Sayeef Salahuddin. This course covers the fundamental circuit and device concepts needed to understand analog integrated circuits. After an overview of the basic properties of semiconductors, the p-n junction and MOS capacitors are described and the MOSFET is modeled as a large-signal device. Two port small-signal amplifiers and their realization using single stage and multistage CMOS building blocks are discussed.
